Any last minute deals?

Another cool new feature has been added to Ottoneu. You can now add notes to a player. These notes can be added to players on your roster, free agents, or other team rosters, and they are visible only to you. You should see a tiny icon that looks a bit like a gray Post-It note to the right of each players name. Just click on that icon to open the notes editor. It changes to yellow after you add a note.

Belatedly ringing in on the rule change question. 1) Yes. 2) No. 3) Think it would be better to have a remedy set up in advanced if possible, but not sure what the options are. Freezing the roster doesn't seem like the appropriate stick for this particular issue. Is there any way to fine a team's salary?

Cool new Ottoneu feature for 2020! An auto eject option that can remove a player from your starting lineup if they are not actually starting for their MLB team. Click the link up at the top of the league home page that says "Gameplay changes coming in 2020" to read about it.
-
FYI - I probably am not going to be on much before the freeze date (work and school). Then I am out of the country from the 8th of Feb through the 21st of February. So, if you don't hear from me, that's why
-
Anybody have 2B to trade? Or Pitching? I would have traded for some of the guys that were cut.
-
I agree on those issues too.
-
I agree with Spa as well.

I agree with Spa!
-
As I have no experience in Ottoneu I will abstain and only vote if necessary
-
My votes: 1) Yes - IL players count toward 22 player roster. 2) No - you do not need to roster a C after you have 162 games at that position. 3) No need to nitpick on rules - if somebody flagrantly violates the rules we can vote on a remedy and give the owner time to fix their team.
-
Any rule changes or clarifications that anyone would like to request for our 2020 season? Personally, I would like to get a consensus on how to handle the rule that stipulates "a roster of 22 major-league players that can fill out a starting lineup". Does that include players on the IL? Do you have to keep a catcher after you fulfill your innings for the year? How do we handle infractions? Do we even care about this rule?
-
I did not expect Twins to sign Josh Donaldson. Their lineup was definitely not lacking last year. They should be fun to watch in 2020.
-
I’m looking forward to it. Draft day is always fun.
-
Auction draft has been set for Sunday, Feb. 23rd at 7pm ET, 6pm CT, 5pm MT, 4pm PT. Please add to your calendars.

Agree with Spa-- Sox should replace Alex with Joey to at least give some Cora-tinuity.

I had never heard that Aaron Boone story. Interesting.
-
Apparently Aaron Boone confronted his supposed friend AJ Hinch about it, and Hinch not only lied to Boone, he allowed the cheating to continue. Nobody will ever trust him again in baseball. I am more likely to manage an MLB team than Hinch is.
-
If anyone thinks their Astros hitters are going to slump, I'll buy your Astros :)
-
I bet Alex Cora is wishing he hadn't bought that Lamborghini now. (wondering where his next paycheck will be coming from)
-
MLB reported that Hinch tried to quash the actions. I think he'll have a job as soon as his suspension is over.
-
Carlos Beltran might get suspended before he manages a game for the NY Mess (not a typo).
-
I would support a lifetime ban. I am surprised Luhnow and Hinch only got 1 year suspensions (though I suspect their careers are over even when the suspensions end).
-
Cora might get a lifetime ban. He seems to be the mastermind and has effected two teams.

I hope the Red Sox hire Joey Cora (currently Pirates 3B coach) as the new manager once Alex Cora’s inevitable suspension is announced. That might not be the best choice, but it would be the most interesting choice.
-
That pennant looks awesome!
-
Vegas Baby was the winner of the expensive RP trade sweepstakes (Alexander Colome $9, Carlos Martinez $14, and Andrew Miller $9). Thanks to everyone who made an offer. That was actually quite fun!
-
That is a nice looking pennant!

Nice work on the pennant! Well earned by Maui Tacos.

Motivation for 2020 - here is a look at the 2019 pennant for our champion Maui Tacos. https://www.dropbox.com/s/xtrmzhkj04pgujm/2020%20Pennant.pdf?dl=0

Oh yes! I forgot that you are the proud owner of Yadier Mimes!
-
I'm in that league too, Squirrels, but I try not to be noticed.
-
Spa City, Winnetka, and myself are all in that league as well.
-
There is a vacant team called Lux Capacitor in League 481 (Best Coast League). The team has a good roster for an abandoned team. Anybody interested in adding another team?
-
Welcome Greg! I'm confident you will love this format.

Welcome to the league.
-
Welcome Greg!
-
Greetings everyone! My name is Greg and I just claimed "Team Name". I have 35+ years of fantasy baseball experience, but am an Ottoneu rookie. This will be my 2nd team - hoping having two teams helps me learn more quickly.
-
I will trade all 3 of these RP in a bundle (Alexander Colome $9, Carlos Martinez $14, and Andrew Miller $9) for the best offer I receive by next Friday morning 1/10. I will likely have to cut all of them, but if someone wants one or more of them, make even a low ball offer and I promise to accept the best of the worst. :)
-
Team Name has decided to not play again in 2020. I will leave the team open over the weekend so if anyone in the league has a friend they want to invite they can do so. If I don't hear anything by late Monday I will abandon the team.

Happy New Year!1

Happy New Year! Welcome to the 20’s!
-
All but 1 person has checked in over the last 2 days. Acuna Manana has only been a couple weeks.
-
Is this league still active? I know Winnetka and Flying Squirrels are still on line, but I am not sure all 12 teams are still active. I want to make sure before the annual dues are collected that the league is still in good shape.
-
Merry Christmas!
-
Carrasco is hoping for a big comeback next year. Just like the Spa City Thoroughbreds.
-
Everything is now right with the world that Spa has completed his annual trade involving Carlos Carrasco. :)
-
I would like to trade WSF (the top prospect in baseball and only player with a 70 future value projection) for 2020 value. I am tired of rebuilding and hope to get back into the mix this year. I sent a few offers. As always, I am open to trade ideas.
-
Black Friday Sale anyone? I've got some shiny new toys on clearance.
